tiki's and north shore cafe

We went to check out Tiki's for lunch on Saturday

They are located on the ground floor of the newly opened Yoyogi Park Be Stage building.

Even if Yoyogi is in its name, it is in between JR Shibuya & JR Harajuku

The top floor looks like it will be a terrace (it wasn’t open), the third floor looks like it is being used by different schools, the second floor has a couple of shops

The restaurant is on the first floor and looks out onto a little park where you can sit and have a coffee or just hang out. 

I ordered the club sandwich 2500 yen (tax included) and an oolong tea 300 yen (tax included)

The sandwich was delicious but the sides seemed a bit skimpy and not crispy at all.
Satoshi had their loco moco...2600 yen (tax included) with coffee 300 yen (tax included)

Of course Satoshi said that while it tasted good it wasn't a "loco moco" because the gravy was different and the rice they used was long grain (probably because Japan is having problems securing rice these days)

He also commented that the plate it was served on wasn’t “fancy” it looked like the type of plate you receive at a yoshoku (Japanese western style) restaurant 

They are dog friendly (as long you abide by their rules which they will go over before you enter)...the furry ones even have their own menu! and are served in Le Creuset ceramic dog bowls!

While we dined, I think there were more furry ones than people!

Next door is North Shore Cafe, you can order malasadas...(they also had cream filled (custard and chocolate), we chose plain and cinnamon)
They also sell ice cream and coffee too
We took out our malasadas and coffee...1100 yen (tax included)
The texture was light and airy not oily at all.

All payments are cashless.

Tiki’s also has a cafe menu and dinner menu. 

The dinner menu is more extensive but also more pricey

We're glad we tried these places and wish them luck going forward.
